11. Comparing Numbers / Greater Than Or Less Than example ( Enter your problem )

1. Example-1





1. Find Comparing Numbers / Greater Than Or Less Than `46` and `210`

Solution:
Compare `46` and `210`

`46` ___ `210`

`46` is Two digit number

`210` is Three digit number

Two digit number is less than Three digit number

`:. 46 < 210`
2. Find Comparing Numbers / Greater Than Or Less Than `345` and `672`

Solution:
Compare `345` and `672`

`345` ___ `672`

`345` is Three digit number

`672` is Three digit number

Here both numbers have same number of digits
So we compare digits at each place from left

Compare `1^(st)` digit : `3<6`

`:. 345 < 672`
3. Find Comparing Numbers / Greater Than Or Less Than `3597` and `3567`

Solution:
Compare `3597` and `3567`

`3597` ___ `3567`

`3597` is Four digit number

`3567` is Four digit number

Here both numbers have same number of digits
So we compare digits at each place from left

Compare `1^(st)` digit : `3=3`

Compare `2^(nd)` digit : `5=5`

Compare `3^(rd)` digit : `9>6`

`:. 3597 > 3567`
4. Find Comparing Numbers / Greater Than Or Less Than `1497` and `1497`

Solution:
Compare `1497` and `1497`

`1497` ___ `1497`

`1497` is Four digit number

Here both numbers have same number of digits
So we compare digits at each place from left

Compare `1^(st)` digit : `1=1`

Compare `2^(nd)` digit : `4=4`

Compare `3^(rd)` digit : `9=9`

Compare `4^(th)` digit : `7=7`

All digits are same
`:. 1497 = 1497`
5. Find Comparing Numbers / Greater Than Or Less Than `5430` and `5431`

Solution:
Compare `5430` and `5431`

`5430` ___ `5431`

`5430` is Four digit number

`5431` is Four digit number

Here both numbers have same number of digits
So we compare digits at each place from left

Compare `1^(st)` digit : `5=5`

Compare `2^(nd)` digit : `4=4`

Compare `3^(rd)` digit : `3=3`

Compare `4^(th)` digit : `0<1`

`:. 5430 < 5431`
6. Find Comparing Numbers / Greater Than Or Less Than `0.31` and `0.308`

Solution:
Compare `0.31` and `0.308`

`0.31` ___ `0.308`

First, compare the number before the decimal point
So, Compare `0` and `0`

The numbers before the decimal point are the same

So, Compare the number after the decimal point

Here both numbers have the different number of decimal places, so we add 0's to the right of `0.31`

`0.310` ___ `0.308`

So, Compare `310` and `308`

Compare `1^(st)` digit : `3=3`

Compare `2^(nd)` digit : `1>0`

`:. 0.310 > 0.308`

`:. 0.31 > 0.308`
